Yes that's been for sale for some time. Started at a much higher proce - ?6k I think.

Struggling to find a home at any price I think - Unfortunately it has that less attractive grill. Personally I prefer the base Berlina look or the later Special/Special T look.

Looks clean but 124's are not my cup of tea !

But when you drop in a 2Ltr they go well, just like a small 131 in handling

My father had one exactly like this but with brown seats and left hand drive. I feel strange seeing a right hand drive version. They were quite rare compared to standard 124 because of short duration in production (only two years). It was an extremely rusty car, ours was wrecked with corrosion almost everywhere, especially on doors and front fenders. Too bad.... But the ultimate reason for wrecking was that the steering box started slipping after a front corner strike and the wheel stick remained completely detached from the steering box just after entering the wreck fied. It was a miracle that could arrive on his own wheels to the final destination.

Well my other race car is a 124, just a coupe. I do love the 124T's and would love to chuck a strong 2l in it like Toad said.

This is my other toy to keep me in tune on the track and something I don't mind rubbing a panel in while the 131 is getting built. Its a old "Sports Sedan" that I have fitted all my running gear into
